The present study examined the extent to which Emotional Intelligence and Personality traits predict Life Satisfaction. Secondly, the study investigated the association between i) Emotional Intelligence&Life Satisfaction ii) Personality traits&Life Satisfaction among Adults (102) with mean age of 28. All the participants were chosen from different areas of district, Srinagar by using purposive sampling method. Emotional Intelligence and Personality traits were the predictor variables while Life Satisfaction was the criterion variable in the present study. Instruments used were SWLS (Diener et al, 1985), NEO-FFI-3 (Costa&McCrae, 1992) and MEII (Mangal&Mangal, 2004). Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis revealed that most of the factors of emotional intelligence were positively correlated with life satisfaction whereas most of the personality traits showed significant negative correlations with life satisfaction. The present study also indicated that only E2 (inter-personal awareness) factor of Emotional Intelligence emerged as the significant predictor of Life Satisfaction whereas none of the personality traits emerged as the significant predictor of Life Satisfaction among the Adults.
